Large Rifle Primers

[greatwhite]

Does anyone know if any stores in the Ottawa area has Large Rifle Primers? I'm down to 1 pack of 100, not looking for many 3 or 4 would be good.

Also has anyone used H4064 Powder for reloading? Was thinking of using it for my 270 Winchester.

Cabelas has IMR 4064 which is used for 3006

I've used IMR 4064 in a few calibres. I didn't like it - I found it left a lot of burn residue and I was not able to optimize a load for any of the calibres. My favorite in 30-06 is H4350. It might also work in a 270 since it is based on the 30-06, but I am not sure. It's a popular powder, so maybe the stores have some in stock.
For primers, did you try Higginson? It is sort of out your way, and they often have a good stock of powder - though it might come from the bulk storage, in which case you will need a container to store the powder in once you get it home.

Very tough to find primers. If you do, buy a thousand at least. If you try the “used” market, guys are gouging asking $400 per 1K. Best bet is find a local retailer that has an online site and check it daily. Then run in and get some when they restock. It’s tough sledding. I recommend keeping several K in stock at all times. I learned my lesson when Obama got into office. As for H4350 it’s close to unobtanium at the moment.

If I am really stuck for components I use a contact out in Albert , his e-mail is : [email protected] . He is a distributor for Ballistics Product here in Canada. He appears to be able to get components from the USA and can ship them throughout Canada.
